Gilmanton Food Pantry And Thrift Shop News

 

The Gilmanton Food Pantry is making preparations for sponsorship of the Adopt-A-Child project again this year.  Toys and clothing are purchased for those Gilmanton children in need of assistance.  Anyone wishing to help with this worthwhile project may either adopt one child, one family of children or just purchase one gift on a child’s wish list.  For persons who may not have the time or resources to go and shop for gifts, we will accept a monetary donation and purchase the gift(s) on your behalf.  We also accept donations of wrapping paper and bows.

 

Just as a reminder, we are collecting items for Thanksgiving and Christmas food baskets.  All the usual things required for a holiday meal.  Especially cranberry sauce, turkey gravy, stuffing mix, juice, sugar, coffee, cocoa, breakfast muffin mix, pickles, olives as well as turkeys.  We also accept donations of money to purchase butter/margarine, milk, eggs, fresh fruit, potatoes, and onions.

Gilford High School Artists At Gilmanton Year-Round Library

Gilmanton Gilford Art copy.jpg

One of the colorful collages created by Gilford High School students to be shown at the Gilmanton Year-Round Library in November.   A reception is scheduled on November 15, 1-3 pm.

 

Gilford High School Expressions is the title of an art show featuring the work of students, and curated by Caledonia Hackley, Reese Henderson and Kassidy Morris.   These one-of-a-kind art pieces use the medium of print block making. 

 

The curators report that “ideas for the print blocks were limitless, but did require us to use no words or logos.  We sketched an outline on the block and continued to sculpt the design using Speedball linoleum cutters.”   Once the students finished cutting out the block, they advanced to the next level of the assignment.  Each student put a color of their choice on a plastic plate, and then used a brayer to smooth out the paint on the block.  Next, they put a piece of colorful paper on top of the painted block to make the print come to life on the page.  Each student was required to make at least ten different prints.  At the end of the printing process, the students cut out shapes of their prints and created a collection of collages.  The collages selected are presented at the Gilmanton Year-Round Library during the month of November.

 

The public is invited to meet the artists at a reception on Saturday, November 15 from 1-3 pm.   The collection will be available for viewing during open hours at the Library.  The Library is located on NH Route 140 in Gilmanton Iron Works, across from the Gilmanton School.

 


 

Gilmanton Fireman’s Association Presents Defibrillator To Gilmanton Year Round Library

(l - r) Association President Lieutenant Dennis Comeau / Gilmanton Year Round Library Board of Director member Jennifer MacLeod.

 

On November 5, 2014, Association President Lieutenant Dennis Comeau presented a defibrillator to Gilmanton Year Round Library Board of Director member Jennifer MacLeod.

 

The defibrillator, was purchased and donated to the Gilmanton Year Round Library by the Gilmanton Fireman’s Association. The funds were raised by our fundraisers, which include the collection of monies from NASCAR race fans.

 

“People have been very generous to us over the years” said Dennis Comeau, “we exist to give back to the Town of Gilmanton and the Gilmanton Fire Department. These funds were raised and earmarked for the purchase of equipment that would benefit both the department and the community as well.”

 

The equipment that the Association buys or donates, comes strictly from monies raised through donations and not tax money. The Association is made up of firefighters and medical personnel of the Gilmanton Fire Department.
